What I learned about this place was that you are probably best with the four pack, because the eight pack will definitely leave you full. Great food and service, but not so great on the ambiance-it's a food court after all. I introduced my friend to this place, and she loved it. Amazing that this place exists. It's nice to see mall food, stepping up to the plate.
I stopped by here yesterday with my husband. We were looking for something small to share before going shopping. We stopped to check this place out, and they had samples. Who doesn't like samples?! The employee working was super welcoming, kind, and helpful. He told us about all of the samples, and additional options. We had a type of fried chicken with homemade noodles. It was great to share with my husband. We both enjoyed it. This restaurant is in a mall food court, so there's no real ambiance, and cleanliness is out of their control. So I can't judge either. I have never had bao before, so I have nothing to compare this to. But it was tasty, customer service was stellar, and it was memorable. I'll definitely return. Review 4 of 2025.
Scoped out some of the options at Valley River Center and to my surprise I stumbled upon Bao-Ing-Out. They offered some samples and I ordered the Steamed Vegetarian Bao buns. They make them fresh! Steamed delicious fluffy bund with just the right ratio filling. I'll be back to try some other items from the menu. Service was friendly and food was steamed to order.
We got take-out from Bao-Ing-Out, and despite the drive home, the food was soooo good! The steamed pork buns were my favorite, followed by the beef dumplings. The dough on the golden fried vegetable buns was well executed, I just wasn't a fan of the vegetable filling. I loved the variety of sauces we got too. I was a bit disappointed to see rice instead of egg drop soup (maybe it's a take-out thing) but the rice was actually really well flavored! Did I mention the packaging was adorable?? That alone would have me going back!
First timers to this restaurant and was pleased with what they had to offer. Food was tasty and plentiful. The two men working were kind and helpful. The restaurant is in the mall. . . Lots of tables, casual, and comfortable.
There's nothing quite like walking aimlessly around a mall during the holiday season. After getting some good people watching in, and picking up another long sleeve shirt for the winter months, I found myself hungry and wandering toward the food court. I chose Bao-Ing-Out because I'd heard of it before and there wasn't much of a line. The man taking orders was kind and there was very little wait time in between ordering and getting my meal. There's not much you can do about the ambiance of a mall; you either like eating in the food court or you don't. Thankfully, Bao-Ing-Out provides a to-go option for those who'd rather enjoy their food at home, like me. I ordered the steamed curry chicken bao limited time special, which came with egg drop soup, and an order of their homemade veggie noodles, all to-go. The tantalizing smell of soup and curry tortured me all the way home. The steamed curry chicken bao was great and I hope they make it a regular menu item in the future. The curry taste was prominent and the bao were stuffed full of meat. I've had bao at other places that skimp out on filling, so I'm happy to report that Bao-Ing-Out gives you your money's worth. The veggie noodles were sadly underwhelming; the only vegetables were cabbage and green onions. So, while they do offer a vegetarian option, I would not call this place vegetarian "friendly." The noodles themselves were cooked perfectly and I could definitely tell they were made fresh, but I wish there were more veggies. The egg drop soup was actually the best I've ever had. It was so fresh and light and I honestly didn't know egg drop soup could taste like that, so major props! All-in-all, I would eat at Bao-Ing-Out again after another lazy afternoon of being an adult mall-rat, but I'll probably try something else on their menu next time.
Short: authentic, delicious, flavorful, fresh, and quick with knowledgeable staff. Visited opening week Oct 27th '23. It was quite busy, and the order here/pick up signs are hanging up high. You order by the steam baos and griddle. [Menu] Menu is a bit small but has pictures and very good selection! [Food & Cost] 2 regular meals : $14/each One with Golden Fried Bao - Beef, 5pc. Deep fried pan-fried beef bao. Topped with chili oil. Absolutely flavorful and still moist! It had nice bits of ginger and not overly greasy. Another with Pancake Roll w/ Braised Beef. WOW!! this was definitely a winner! The beef was not chewy at all and so flavorful! Almost like the nice cut of beef in pho. Made on a green onion asian pancake. A delicious hoisin soy sauce. Each regular meal comes with 1 side and 1 soup. I got the kimchi, radish salad, and egg drop soup. The egg drop soup had seaweed & egg, it was flavorful but the broth was clear. The radish salad was delicious! Very flavorful and looks made in house. Kimichi was typical kimchi, not overly spicy.
I have been going to this mall my entire life. I worked there all through high school. I have 4 kids that have been going through their lives. Never have I been more impressed with a food court until this last year. It's so awesome to see it taken over by mostly local mom and pop type places and so many international options. Bao-ing Out is so fun and tasty. My son usually goes to the Mexican place (their food is also great) and I come here. He tried some of my food last time and will be ordering here next time. From the owner who so happily offers samples and explanations of the menu, to the delish options and really fun food packaging, you really can't beat this place. I hope they stay for a long time to come!
Yum! I was pleasantly surprised by Bao-ing-Out. Not because the food doesn't look good or because of reviews, but because I ordered it from DoorDash and had no idea it was coming from the food court at the mall. And no offense to the mall food, it just wasn't what I would expect. It was so good, like should have been at a sit down restaurant type of good. I ordered a half size of the steamed bao and the chicken and noodles. The bag of stuff I received included those two items, plus two to-go coffee cups and multiple sauces. The coffee cups had the egg flower/drop soup (fairly bland) and the delicious sauce for the noodles. The service sizes were large, definitely just get half the bao unless you're sharing with more than 2 people. The bao were perfect, light bun with flavor and great meaty flavor inside. I didn't realize the chicken in the noodle dish was deep fried but that's ok (would have preferred grilled). But there is a lot in there and it was all good. I'll definitely return and try more options. Menu is a bit limited but that's ok, want to try dumplings next!
Tried this with my boyfriend yesterday, we just got the 8pc bao to share, comes with egg flower soup or rice for $15.95. Very affordable especially for how big the baos are. We got them steamed, they were very filling and pretty good. My boyfriend really enjoyed them, I liked them but I think I just prefer soup dumplings in general, maybe 1 day they will sell some too, since they are a bao and dumpling place. Soup was okay, a bit too watery/thin for my liking. Overall a good value, and fairly good too, especially for being located in the mall's food court!
For a mall food court option this was pretty good! I wouldn't say they were the best baos in Eugene. But for an inexpensive and tasty vegetarian meal while shopping at Valley River, this place is a home run. For less than $10 you can get 3 Bao, a side, and a soup. That's a lot! The wait was pretty long though. I wonder if that was because I ordered them pan fried. The next time I find myself here I will order them just steamed and see if that would reduce the wait time. Very happy with this addition within Valley River.
Okay, this place is a sleeper! Very authentic Chinese food. We were taken back to find this at the mall! We ordered the Steamed dumplings and Bao, Pan fried Bao, and some sesame balls! All the food was great but the pan fried bao was so good! The flavors were on point! We wish we could of tried the other dishes, but our time here was limited. If ever in the area we will be back. The staff were great, and the manager was very friendly and spoke Chinese as well! This place is on par with some of the good Chinese restaurants in Los Angeles! If you are ever in the area, come grab some authentic Chinese food! Happy Nom Nom! read more

I have been here several times... and am surprised I have not done a review. So here goes... The bbq pork baozi are delicious, and fresh. Past visits verify this. This visit, I ordered the fried chicken and rice plate, and an order of sesame balls. Fried chicken is yummy, tender and juicy. Rice is good, nice and sticky... easy to eat with chopsticks. The order includes a nice portion of pickled Daikon radish, and some made in house Kimchi... both of which are delicious. Very nice service over all... definitely a full meal. Sesame balls... smaller than I am used to, but very tasty. The red bean paste inside is yummy, although I think it needs a bit more paste than they have. Seems skimpy! But worth the price. Service is always awesome... the staff here are wonderful, if you need something, all you have to do is ask. read more
Was looking for a relatively inexpensive food place that was close to our hotel and I found this place on yelp, and I have to say that it definitely delivered. At first I was a little bit wary that it was in a mall food court, but it's legit. The service was great and they were able to accommodate some special orders. The dining is your typical Mall food court although there is plenty of seating so you should be able to find a spot and enjoy your food. Everything was tasty and it was really plentiful. I was impressed at all the different options and would easily come here again. They also have samples so you can try something before you potentially buy it. Side note, I was impressed at how jumping this mall was. These days a lot of malls are dead, so it was nice to see a mall that was packed like the early '90s! read more

I get embarrassed when I go into a food place and they recognize me by how frequently I've ordered food from them. I've bypassed this with Bao-ing Out by ordering sometimes at the counter, but then ordering mostly from food delivery services so they can't see my face because the amount of food I eat from them is actually embarrassing. It's amazing to me that they're in a mall food court, and I'm happy that they're in the mall because my family and I go often but I'd really expect food of this caliber to be in a stand alone restaurant. My go-to order is a small order of pan-fried pork bao buns and three beef dumplings, also pan-fried. The small order of bao comes with egg drop soup (delicious). They also give you radish kimchi, not a huge fan of the texture but the taste is good. What's cool about Bao-Ing out is that a lot of times, they have samples on their counter which reminds me of Costco, so I like that as well! Don't skip out on this place, the counter is nice and clean, you can see them cooking the food on what looks to be traditional-ish cookware and they're happy to answer any questions you have! read more

Ok so it's in the mall food court and let me just say our mall food court is AMAZING. This just adds to the amazingness! I've always wanted to try Bao and could never find a vegetarian one - well they've got it! Wow it was so good I couldn't believe it! It tastes like bread which was surprising but it's so delicious. I did get their noodles which were not impressive at all (only reason I gave a 4 star) but I will be back for the Bao! I can't wait to go again! read more

Wow so yummy! Had the fried chicken baos(4) and cup of egg drop soup. The baos were very flavorful and texture was right on. Inside the bao was full of meat, the creamy sauce they give you so tasty too . egg drop soup was on point . Worth a try and would most definitely one back again when we are in town. read more

Service with a smile. They gave my 5 year old a fresh bao from the back to see if he liked it before we ordered which was really nice! Everything was hot and fresh and the white sauce that comes with the desert bao was a hit with the kid. read more

The service is quick and high quality, probably some of the sweetest people you meet and extremely good prices for the portion sizes. If you're looking for a good bao place/new food to try then definitely come here. The restaurant itself is absolutely adorable and the ambiance is great. read more

Food was excellent. Everything tasted fresh and had great flavor. I especially enjoyed the braised pork belly and steamed pork bao. It took longer than expected to get my order and they called me back once I had it because they gave me a wrong item. Kudos for catching before I left the area. Prices are fair. I went early to avoid lunch crowds, however, not all meat options were available because of this. Personally I like the taste here more than the bao bao house. Super surprising considering this is in a mall food court. read more
I stopped by and got some steamed bao and pan fried chicken dumplings. I found it all to be quite tasty and enjoyed them. A customer ahead of me ordered some hard boiled eggs that weren't on the menu and they looked soooooooo good. The customer said they used to be on the menu but not anymore but she could still order them. My only negative really was that it was hard to understand how to order. I personally found the menu, confusing, basically you order the bow or the Dumpling and there are three ways. Each of those are served. When you order those it comes with a cup of soup and it's about $10. I didn't want the soup, but it was in the bag. Great packaging and I would go back. read more

This is a vegetarian review: it's just okay. The filling in the bao buns is just all spinach. It's so much spinach that it was hard to eat a whole one. Pretty dry, I was hoping for more sauce (and to get the strong spinach taste outta my mouth). I wouldn't go back as a vegetarian, no good options. However, I really enjoyed the appeal of this place. They have fun logos and nice take out bags. Plus, the service was excellent! There was a line, so people must love this place. read more
